Cambridge Behavioral
Hospital Partial Hospitalization Level of Care

This multi-disciplinary treatment program
is an intensive treatment offered to adults 18 years and
older who are experiencing an acute exacerbation of an
established Axis I diagnosis within ICD-9 codes
290-319. Dual diagnosis with drug or alcohol is
eligible for services. The goal is to provide a viable
alternative to inpatient or bridge the gap between
inpatient treatment and the ability to benefit from
outpatient treatment. Length of stay is determined by
individual patient need.

Admission Criteria:

1.Transitioning
from Inpatient: While
transition to PHP level of care is expected within 24
hours of discharge, immediate transition is preferred.
Due to the severity of the patient’s presenting
problems, this step down is medically necessary in lieu
of a longer inpatient stay and to prevent relapse back
into inpatient care. Once this program is completed the
patient will be referred for outpatient therapy.

2.Transitioning
from Outpatient: Referrals
are accepted from outpatient providers including
psychiatrists, psychologists, and therapists.
Transition is preferred within 24 to 48 hours of the
referral . Acute exacerbation of the Axis I diagnosis
in which outpatient treatment interventions have been
unable to facilitate stabilization is required. PHP
crisis intervention then becomes an alternative to
inpatient referral.

3.Medically
stable and able to tolerate the length of treatment
hours.

4.Potential
community support system to maintain stability outside
of treatment hours.

5.Ability
to benefit from group facilitated psychotherapy.
